Unfortunately, there are no names, numbers or markings shown on my windows. So, I do not know the manufacturer. I thought they were made by Harvey Building Products but HBP said no. I do know that the windows are double hung and I need several replacement window locks and sash releases as shown in the photograph. Thanks for your help!

We should be able to help. I'm not sure this is Harvey, but if you give me the dimensions of the hardware you need to replace then I'm confident we will be able to find something. We will specifically need the distance between the installation holes, center-to-center.

The distance between the installation holes, center-to-center, of both the window latch and the sash release, is two inches. They are made of plastic.

Thank you! There are a couple things to look at first. See our 26-337 and 26-334 for the tilt latches. These both have a hole spacing of 2".

I'm afraid we don't have any locks in this style with a 2" spacing. Can you confirm?

Latch 26-337 seems to be a match or at least should work. Do these come in left/right pairs? Do you have any locks in this style with spacings other than 2 inches?

Yes, the 26-337 comes in a pair that includes the left and right side. We carry many, many locks in this style, as a matter of fact. You can see our entire selection here.

Okay, I will now go to your website and buy one Top Tilt Latch Pair 26-337 and one Lock & Keeper 90-278 and see how they work on my windows. Should they work I will purchase a couple more. Thanks.
